Yeah companies don't care. McDonald's sold my fingerprint data. I used it to clock in and out for work. I got like a 50 dollar settlement or something so that was nice <3 ty Ronald
Why do you rich people always get off flaunting your wealth in our faces?
So sorry. I'm sure with lots of hard work, nepotism and education you too may some day be able to work at a McDonald's of your own and get your prints stolen. Keep that head up champ and pull up hard on those boot straps! :)
